- Hydraulic Drilling machines helping us maintain the accuracy required for the robust cranes manufactured by us.
- Semi-Automatic Bandsaws making sure the we deliver products well within stipulated time frames committed to our clients.
Painting Area
- Herc has a dedicated 5000 sq. ft. of painting and pre-dispatch painting area, where our machines are painted to meet the high-quality benchmarks set by our quality team.
- High-quality compressors ensure the paint quality is of high standards, with the DFT maintained across the product, giving our cranes a seamless finish.

Electrical Department
Herc has a dedicated 800 sq. ft area in its plant for manufacturing and testing of electrical panels. Electrical quality checks are essential to ensure the safe and efficient operation of cranes. Here are some key areas that Herc’s Electrical Department Focuses on:
- Insulation Testing
- Megger Test: Measure the insulation resistance between conductors and ground to assess the quality of the insulation.
- Hipot Test: Apply a high voltage to the insulation to check for breakdown or leakage currents.
- Grounding Continuity
Continuity Test: Verify the continuity of the grounding system to ensure proper electrical grounding.
Resistance Measurement: Measure the resistance of the grounding path to ensure it meets safety standards.
3. Circuit Breaker Testing
- Functional Test: Verify that circuit breakers operate as intended under various fault conditions.
- Trip Curve Test: Check that the circuit breaker trips at the correct current level.
4. Motor Testing
Insulation Resistance Test: Measure the insulation resistance of the motor windings.
Load Test: Test the motor under rated load conditions to verify its performance.
Vibration Analysis: Monitor vibration levels to detect mechanical problems.
5. Control System Testing
Functional Test: Verify that the control system operates as intended.
Safety Interlock Testing: Ensure that safety interlocks function properly.
Emergency Stop Testing: Test the emergency stop system to ensure it functions as intended.
6. Wiring and Cabling
Visual Inspection: Check for damage, loose connections, or incorrect wiring.
Continuity Test: Verify the continuity of each circuit.
Polarity Check: Ensure correct polarity of connections.
7. Power Quality Analysis
Harmonic Analysis: Measure harmonic distortion to assess power quality.
Voltage Sag and Swell Analysis: Identify voltage fluctuations that can affect equipment performance
By conducting these electrical quality checks, our electrical department and team ensure the prevention of electrical failures, reduce downtime, and guarantee the safety of personnel and equipment once the product is delivered to our clients.

Design and Engineering Department
Precision manufacturing requires precision design. Herc’s design house is equipped with software capable of designing cranes with capacities up to 200 tons, using automated design procedures and strictly adhering to IS codes such as IS 3177, IS 807, IS 800, IS 3938, IS 3832, and others. Our design house utilizes software like Solid Edge and AutoCAD, which enable 3D design and precise Finite Element Analysis (FEA) before manufacturing begins, ensuring that our clients receive a product designed to last!

Quality Control Department
Delivering a quality product is of prime importance to us at Herc. We ensure that our Quality Assurance Plans are followed and are well-equipped with the necessary instruments to uphold these standards. Our Quality and Inspection Division thoroughly checks all parts manufactured by our production team using inspection instruments such as calipers, micrometers, and testing machines to ensure that the cranes meet quality standards. Herc has a dedicated area and team to oversee this process. Our quality team is responsible for inspecting all components and assemblies throughout the manufacturing process, as well as the materials made for inventory, before they enter our store.
Testing Facilities
Load testing is a foolproof method to ensure that the products manufactured at Herc Material Handling are ready to perform at our clients’ workshops without any hindrance. To achieve this, Herc follows a comprehensive Quality Assurance Plan (QAP), which includes physical test runs, motor checks, gearbox noise level checks, and physical load testing at the plant prior to dispatch. The testing is conducted with calibrated loads in our testing area at a minimum of 125% of the Safe Working Load of the machines we supply. This thorough testing assures our clients that the machines have been rigorously checked and tested before dispatch and are truly ‘built to last.’


Inventory and Supply Chain Management
Inventory management is key to timely delivery. Herc utilizes Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (ERP) to ensure that all historical data is leveraged to understand market trends and plan inventories accordingly. A strict min-max system and a well-managed store of over 1,600 sq. ft. ensure that Herc is equipped to provide prompt delivery and after-sales service to our customers when needed. Our stores are segregated into four parts: Raw Materials, Work in Progress (WIP), Finished Goods, and recurring spares, all stored separately with geo-tagging done inside the plant itself. This organization allows Herc to make prompt deliveries as required by our clients. We ensure that any spare parts are maintained for a minimum of five years after the machines are supplied to our clients. A well-maintained store instills confidence in our clients regarding our capacity to serve them promptly, even a decade later, thereby increasing our credibility.
